Nice review bro, but I kind of wish you would have paid some attention to all of the specs listed on the site where you ordered them. That would have answered most of your questions, kept you from guessing, and maybe allowed for a more focused review. I believe Gates has been using the 10-52's for a while and then developed these with the EB folks. The wound strings are wrapped in Stainless, where the regular EB's are Nickel and the Cobalt's are, well, Cobalt. That's why you get a slightly brighter sound. There is also a strength factor with stainless (which is why many frets are stainless now) and coupled with new, stronger alloys on the core and unwound strings, is supposed to allow for better tuning stability and greater overall strength vs their regular strings. It would have been nice for you to have had that info handy and maybe even compared the tuning stability claims a little. Overall though, nice video and great tone. Keep it up!
This is my first time hearing it but I could tell the difference immediately the gates strings actually sounds a bit smoother on the high and low temp I actually like it more sounds really smooth
Hey dude I brought a new Syn custom and I want to put 10-52s to it it has 10-46 on it from the stock what do i need besides strings like did you put an extra tension spring to the back ? Thanks
Don't alter anything dude. Just slam heavy bottom skinny top and hear what it sounds like. You can put tuner locks on it if you desire because the guitar has some weird flex and weight to it but just see what you like and don't like then custom it that way.
@@duran4571He actually used standard for everything the the studio with i assume maybe a drop pedal. His tech has a bunch of his signatures tuned to Drop D for touring though.
buy signature string is the most stu**d thing ..... i dont think the factory build spesific machine or material just for one person ... so just buy a normal product with no artist name on it they EXACTLY THE SAME ... becouse artist name mean more money you have pay
The different was very noticeable. If you don’t notice…. Are you really even a guitar player lol? 😂 all joke but I definitely could hear the difference
